Set in Damon Runyon’s New York City, Guys and Dolls JR. follows gambler, Nathan Detroit, as he tries to find the cash to set up the biggest crap game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they’ve been engaged for fourteen years without ever getting married. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, but Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown. Guys and Dolls JR. takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, but everyone eventually ends up right where they belong.
Several of my 6th grade students were in attendance with their parents. I love the support that Big Jule {Bella}received. It is always interested to see how students interact outside the classroom. Bella is perfect on stage. She is a natural for sure.

Guys and Dolls JR, y'all!
Oh! What fun, Ron. I worked in the theater for several years and just loved it. There is always so much excitement with a live production. The worst play I ever saw was a good one...there is never any bad live theater to me...Thanks for sharing those kids with us! xo Diana
